Hey alls I made this headlight scoop but im kinda shy to run the daym thing. What do you guys think about it, let me know all comments are welcom. By the way all things needed to do this was free from all of my leftover materials including the headlight itself was a donation haha. Or better yet post up your headlight scoop i wanna see some pics heres a pic of mine

Hahah shouldve made one right haha well heres some pics of it I took while in the making
I was actually going to make a DIY but i thought it wouldnt pull through heres some pics.

Here I layed out the sides. I used leftover fiberglass repair kit and then waited a day for curing.

started sanding down the side to make it a little bit more representable.

This picture I used leftover body filler so i can hide the fiberglass on the outside part of the headlight.

after sanding down looked like this, then after the outside you wokr on the inside part because the fiberglass wont look all uniformed itll have corners and all so I used body filler made it nice and and smooth. the inside will look like this.

until it looked like this.

And this.

then the test fit on the car itself.

That's pretty cool. Looks decent.

Not legal for a street car around here though.

I'm going to make one with some lights from another car. I'll post a thread when I do it. If it doesn't work, I'll hate myself for wasting $60.

itd pretty easy but mine I didnt spend a penny. Used all old material like sandpaper from polishing rims, body filler from repairing dents, adn fiberglass repair kit from repairing my lip.
Just gotta find a way how to do the back part where youre intake will connect to.

Im in the process. So does anybody know how to remove spraypaint on plastic what product shall I use. This is actually jsut spraypaint. Oh yeah thanks all for teh comment.

with acetone? but i think that will haze the lens. paint thinner or something? looks good btw.

i got a set of headlights free(eh2) from a buddy and he had spraypainted eyelids on them....simple paint thinner and a rag.....takes some time a scrubbing, good arm workout..lol but it wont haze/discolor/damage the headlight or corner light

by the way it turned out great. now you need a 2" to ?" coupler to hook it up to your intake arm......

i thought of doing this with my eh2, i have a few sets of spare headlights. i was just going to remove the glass and open up the hole a bit in the back to a 2.5" by just plastic welding on a small peice of pvc pipe

didnt need no coupler. I had an old air filter taht my aunt ran over adn then the back piece came off and i saw it so i picked it up and imagined haha and there it is the hard part was connecting the intake pipe to the headligth itself i used the airduct or whatever you call them from the dyer yes the dyer for cloths and did teh trick then clamped it on. But in your case you dont need to remove the glass part they made hole saw that can cut through those things.
